Sticking with this bolster idea! This could easily be done with a ball BUT the bolster could be slightly easier! ⠀
⠀
WHY?!?! ⬇️⠀
1️⃣ Bolster is sturdier⠀
2️⃣Larger surface area ⠀
3️⃣ Rolls in one direction⠀
⠀
AKA child could be more successful at this! ⠀
⠀
Now WHAT DOES THIS DO?! ⠀
1️⃣BALANCE BABY- look ma I’m on one leg! With the free foot resting on an unstable objects adds that challenge ⠀
2️⃣STRENGTH- Pushing the bolster with the free foot, HELLLOOOO calf and lower body strengthening! Has to keep that leg up so we got some hip flexor strength and to stop it we need to activate those dorsiflexors(foot muscle for control)! ⠀
3️⃣FUN- DESPITE MY GREATEST EFFORTS, I GET THAT I’M BORING ALL THE TIME! kiddos love this because I feel like it has some edge to it. Push it back and forth as slow or fast as your want! ⠀

📲Questions or concerns slide into my DM!⠀

❌❌❌Don’t google that!!! ❌❌❌Ever spend hours on the internet searching for why your child is walking on their tip toes? Or questioning what is the next phase of development for your little one?! 🛑 🛑🛑Stop worrying and get the support you need! ⠀
⠀
I have tons of parents who tell me that their pediatricians aren’t concerned and let’s “wait and see”. 🤦🏻‍♀️I am not knocking these doctors and highly respect their care and expertise,but why not ease mamas mind and get a jump start on tackling the concern!!?!? ⠀
⠀
➡️Physical therapist, occupational therapist, speech therapist, feeding therapists, and sleep consults are just a few of the providers you can reach out with a concern! Get that extra support mama!⠀
⠀
Another reason is to educate and learn! Why be in the dark about what your babies next milestone is when you can learn what’s next from a professional instead of becoming your own Web MD doctor! ⠀
⠀
📚I love recommending the book Why Motor Skills Matter by Tara Losquadro Liddle! Pick up yours for the holidays! ⠀

Message me with questions or concerns! Not in New York, I can put you in touch with someone in your area!

“YOU GOT THIS”

That’s my mantra! Well of course thanks to my Instagramless PT school partner who told me day 1 “You got this G”.

A staple at my virtual office is this little sign to remind me that I can in fact do this! 💪🏼 We all have doubts at being a good enough friend, parent, student, or therapist. But let me tell you, whatever it is, YOU GOT THIS!

Take a moment and write down ALL of the things you’ve accomplished! I bet it’s more than you give yourself credit for.

Don’t forget to shout this out

“WE GOT THIS”
“YOU GOT THIS”
“I GOT THIS”
